LLave Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Ok, so maybe someone can enlighten me. What exactly are weight jacks and how do you install/build them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Weight jacks are used to raise one corner of the car so that corner weights can be set. On the early Z the weight jacks we normally use are threaded collars and coilovers with 2.5" springs. On circle track cars the weight jacks are a large threaded shaft that screws into the body and then the top spring perch. By turning the screw in that corner gets lifted, and by turning it out that corner gets lowered. Here is an example: http://www.secureperformanceorder.com/afcostore/getproduct.cfm?CategoryID=17&ClassID=222&SubclassID=1043&ProductID=910 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
